    Great to see Harden committed to Houston. I hope he retires a Rocket.

    Harden, Anderson, and Gordon will have four years to build chemistry. Very good.

    The last year is a player option which most likely he wont take. But what a relief. Great news.

    Gotta risk it to get the biscuit. This is great news!

    Maybe we'll convince WB to join us next year.

    Wow. Whatever the extension is, it'll most likely end up being a bargain again by year 3. Really surprised he's doing this. Newfound respect!
